MODIS/Terra+Aqua Land Cover Type Yearly L3 Global 500 m SIN Grid
Entry ID:
MCD12Q1
Summary
Abstract:
The MODIS Land Cover Type product contains multiple classification schemes, which describe land cover properties derived from observations spanning a year’s input of Terra and Aqua data. The primary land cover scheme identifies 17 land cover classes defined by the International Geosphere Biosphere Programme (IGBP), which includes 11 natural vegetation classes, 3 developed and mosaicked land ...
